Spa Washcloth

I've been looking for a pattern for a spa-ish washcloth, and I've found just the perfect one.

Actually, no, it wasn't perfect. I fiddled with it and reworked it a little, and now I do think it is the perfect spa washcloth.

I used an eco-cotton that has just a little acrylic added so it has a little "scrub" to it, not the soft silkiness of a pima cotton. After all we want to slough off that dry skin and expose the dewy cells underneath, right?

You would like the pattern too? Of course, glad to share.

It's below. It works up quickly and is a perfect little project to practice some very simple "lace" stitches.

So, if I would add sandpaper to my yarn, would I be the dewiest?! See if you can work on that formula as I'm needing some more dew. LOL! Oh, the problem for me when I see these yummy textured creations on the screen of a computer is that I can't touch them. I must learn to knit one day. At least the basics anyway...The dishcloths I was lucky enough to win in your giveaway, what is the yarn content in these?? And did you make them? For some reason I thought you purchased them.

About Me

There was a time when I could at least give off an illusion of perfection on the outside and fool myself on the inside into thinking I had everything under control. However, along the way as I've accumulated a husband, 5 kids, miscellaneous pets, and daily to do lists, I'm learning to live joyously with all the messy imperfections of life, led each moment by the hand of my God who never leaves me.
